If you do not hope, you will not win that which is not hoped for, since it is unattainable and inaccessible.
Everything changes and nothing stands still.
Though wisdom is common, yet the many live as if they had a wisdom of their own.
There is nothing permanent except change. [Therefore enjoy what good you have while you have it and endure and outlast what bad you can't cure immediately]
Time is a child playing with droughts. The lordship is to the child.
History is a child building a sand-castle by the sea, and that child is the whole majesty of man's power in the world.
